Never mind.

So by flipping the script you turn scrip into a verb.

Yes, I’ve met gay people of all sorts, particularly in NYC. I was just playing @"Hanover"’s game, or at least I thought I was but apparently it was th...

What does “to scrip” mean?

I’m bored at under slept at the airport Hanny.

I adore glassware. Let’s see. I also like women’s dresses but I’m not sure that counts. I’m a gourmand and a wine snob. I love to cook. I also love co...

Good to see you back in the 11th hour with your valuable feedback.

I guess?

So was I…

I think of them as kind of timeless (laugh if you want), so I'll take it, but I'm sure they'd take it too, actually. Of course that's probably not wha...

:up: Out of interest, does Oceansize land anywhere on that continuum?

Soft pretzels are the only real pretzels.

Got it (I think?)

I guess as a dumb American I don't really know what that actually means. Aren't you from Scotland? So that's not English, right? I didn't really think...

:chin: They're totally dated in that sense, yes, but I still love them. But I don't blame anyone for passing them off for this reason. There's a lot o...

Just saw this. I feel the same, although of course I'm not English. I'm sure I've posted Oceansize many times here, but do you know them? Their lead s...

Once again I think we're getting into pretzels instead of eating and enjoying them.

Does this ever get old? No. There's something about the chord changes that begin at 1:22 (and repeat throughout the piece as it's pretty repetitive) t...

Just enjoy the pretzels, yes.

I agree that there’s no need to change things up, it’s going fine. A shorter voting period is probably not a bad idea. If anything, I preferred the or...

I’m the same way.

:up:

Fine with me. I just said I didn't like the photos.

interesting; I didn't catch that. Interesting. I read "Fixation City" as referencing addiction or at least a fixation on some habit. I could be wrong.

Another disturbing photo. Do not approve.

Disturbing photo. Don't like. Liked the poem. This mid-line rhyme didn't bother me, and on the contrary I found it to be brilliant. Then again, I'm an...

In my house cleaning, I see I haven't commented on this story, but I could have sworn I did. Guess I'm getting old. Unfortunately I have nothing origi...

:rofl:

I'm decidedly not a fan of the zombie genre, so I can't pretend that this was a favorite of mine. I felt the storytelling was actually pretty strong, ...

I'm doing some house cleaning and realized I didn't comment (or vote) here. I should re-read this, but this was quite a good story; I think it should ...

Yeah, I'm with 180 in how I read that. No issue.

Excellent word choice. Right up there with its more celebratory cousin, jamboree. A word taught to me by the highly educational children's show Arthur...

Yeah it might be a musical thing. I kind of read poetry for the sound more than anything else. Not that I read that much poetry to begin with. When I ...

That's a prototypical example of the kind of prose you can find being passed around in TPMECI.

Quigley there, he ran full bore towards Jamal, followed closely by a slobbering zombie. Panic was in Quigley's blood shot eyes and his jiggly beer gut...

I kid. I am, however, a member of The Pickle Munching East Coast Intellectuals, yes. A very elite literary circle not many know about. I’m impressed y...

I’m incensed at the suggestion that I would make such a mistake.

I liked it and like the idea of it, but I'm not sure if that sort of story is for me, ultimately. I think I even might have made it to around 150 page...

Y'all are making me consider picking TItus Groan back up. Maybe.

I suppose I shouldn't be giving hints.

I see you've read my story and not commented on it!

:pray:

I thought of this as well.

Tempestuously my toe is run over Barring words like “God dammit” From my vocabulary I quickly lose all sense of direction Both physically And poetical...

If it helps at all, I did begin posting the stories in the order I received them but that quickly divulged into chaos.

What? You good?

Yes, I agree with this, even though I l love the guessing game and always will. Myself, I've done some work, and plan to do re-reads of everything and...

Ok, so you're not a pickle guy. I am. I also love the fresh veg that can be applied to a sando. Are we good?

Sorry bout that. But saying you'd eat my sammy if the veg was a bit out of date doesn't exactly make me feel good.

You agree yet you don't! Just choose which side you're on. Sometimes being mean is ok. :joke:
